As far as I'm concerned, it's not really an '820' unless it includes all the 
info you'd normally see on the 'remittance advice' portion of a paper 
check.... typically you see the check stub look something like....


REF (inv# or DM/CM#)    Date     Gross     Discount   Net

 274.00    <<< check amount

Heck, plenty good enough to serve the purpose of a commercial '820' document 
if you ask me. (Nobody did but I'll answer anyway).

Assuming, of course, you have a clue what the 'DM34567 is all about... but 
the '812' should have explained that.....

(Technically, of course, the DM should also be discounted by prompt payment 
terms amount *if* the chargeback  is for something on which the customer 
took a terms discount when he originally paid it... but that kind of detail 
has become virtually esoteric... and not really related to 'EDI' ).
